Sharing life's observations & thoughts
Empty mind is a devil’s workshop. In my case just not so devilish after all. December & January are typically light months at work. The empty mind and free time made me dig out the ignored Coffee Machine. This was a very old purchase during my stay in Nairobi. Once back in India it was… Continue reading Coffee Experiement with Blue Tokai Roasters

Rude food - the collected food writings of Vir Sanghvi. Picked this one at the Oxford bookstore sale a few weeks back.
